    Whats the obsession with the Echo arena, the people who go to these fights are always twats. I still can't beleave they booed, Tony Bellew vs Nathan Cleverly..? when they stopped briefly for a rest during the fight.

    The main one is that its a damn sight closer to where I live than the O2 or the Excel.

    Ah, damn it. I was hoping to go to this. Right on my doorstep is the Excel. Although it's the worst arena in the country.

    Echo is a fantastic place to watch boxing. Me and my mate got normal 50 quid seats on the bottom of the lower tier and the view was awesome only about 20m and it would have been the 100 or so quid for ringside!

    Why is the fight in Liverpool again? Whats the point in only attracting a Liverpool audience for these two. I'd imagine the arena will be pretty empty aswell with there only being 23 days notice

    Probably hard to get another arena at short notice after the Excel fell though.

    There's no major footie game on the same day is there?

    If there is I'll be buggered if I'm going - I'm still recovering from the mental scars of being chased half way across town by a group of loonies.

    Any word on the opponents yet? Fwank will have to pull a couple of half decent fighters to sell this.

    Stephen Smith is on the undercard in an 8 rounder, can't see it being anything too taxing for him.

    You want an even money bet, I'll back Smith and you have his opponent?
